Looks great, do you really need 9 malts for mild, I'm thinking of a mild to brew during the Xmas break.

It was a recipe I was given, but it will have a complex flavour

The ABV will come out a little higher than I wanted, it will be around 4.0-4.2%
I was after 3.8-3.9%, im assuming the overnight mash got out more sugar than expected.
